PRALINES A L'ORLEANS 
1 cup whipping cream
1 lb. light brown sugar
2 tbsp. butter, softened
1 cup pecan halves

Mix whipping cream and brown sugar together in a 4-quart microwave safe dish. Microwave on high for 13 minutes -- candy should be 234-240°F with candy thermometer.

Drop candy by teaspoon onto a sheet of foil and allow to cool.

Note: A candy thermometer is recommended.

Since microwave ovens vary in power, you may need to adjust your cooking time.
